Baluch nationals residing in London have highlighted the atrocities and killings that are taking place in their homeland Baluchistan and sought United Nations intervention to stop Pakistan from absorbing Gilgit Baltistan. The Baluch nationals focused on the issues like human right violations in Baluchistan, disappearance of fellow nationals, target killings and genocide and the geo-strategic importance for peace and security in South Asia. President of the Institute for Gilgit Baltistan Studies, Senge Hasnan Sering asserted that Pakistan was heavily dependent on China as it was losing its friends around the world, including the United States, which has been the biggest patron of Pakistan for such a long time.
